No Second Troy - Gone lyrics

rate me

You seemed okay<br />

Late that day<br />

It was the was night<br />

When you slid away<br />

I spend all my days finding my future<br />

Making simple calculations of saints<br />

I've got novels, poems, my parents' eyes<br />

But I ache<br />

<br />

The truth... <br />

Without you... <br />

<br />

The silence falling<br />

It was just an overture<br />

I was sure that<br />

I would wake up<br />

And you'd be gone<br />

<br />

I brought all my strength to bear<br />

On a problem that wasn't there<br />

Tried to see myself in the mirror<br />

But I just stared<br />

Down alleys, out windows<br />

Streets still they don't know<br />

When will this dead wind blow<br />

For you? <br />

<br />

The silence falling<br />

It was just an overture<br />

I was sure that<br />

That I would wake up<br />

And you'd be gone<br />

<br />

Gone<br />

This fear you've held<br />

Is it gone, <br />

This fear you've held? <br />

<br />

And as we left the room<br />

I knew it would be soon<br />

Should've known right then<br />

That this was good by<br />

<br />

The silence falling<br />

It was just an overture<br />

I was sure that<br />

That I would wake up<br />

Knowing your face<br />

Is steady in this place<br />

<br />

The silence falling<br />

It was just an overture<br />

I was sure that<br />

That I would wake up<br />

And you'd be...
